The room is indeed a food store.
At first, the strange smells — a mixture of sweet,
spicy and stale food — take you by surprise.
Various meats hang on hooks along one wall.
In one corner is a barrel, full of exotic fruits.
A cheese rack holds a dozen or so varieties of cheese
and your nose turns up in disgust at the strong smell of the, shall we say,
'over-ripe' ones.
Six loaves of black bread stand on a table,
next to a bread knife and cutting board.
Two other doors lead from the room.
If you are hungry, you may try some of the food,
otherwise you may leave either through the door in the left-hand wall,
or the door in the right-hand wall.
